This last week, Mrs. Sally Craddock and myself, conducted a Skype session to allow our children to discuss what they had learned about birds.

I would love to continue this with other elementary schools (both in SBISD and across the United States) as it can open a world of 21st century learners participating in collaborative learning! Going Global is COOL!
We enjoyed Skyping with you, too! The best thing about small-group videoconferencing is that each child is able to actively participate. It also validates all of the students' hard researching efforts. Let's do it again, soon!
